About

Explore Britain’s magical waterland at your own pace. Take to the helm and hire one of our fantastic day boats or day cruiser on the Norfolk Broads. Our Wroxham day boat hire allows you to independently explore the beauty of the Broads at your own pace and in your own style, from the perfect starting location. Broads Tours require at least two adults on our Day Boats (at our discretion we may allow one adult with a child of 14 years or over). Pets welcome on all of our day boats. Day boats available by the hour up to a full day.

Other ways to explore the Broads with Broads Tours:

Scheduled River Trips:
What better way to discover the Broads National Park than by joining Broads Tours for a scheduled river trip. All trips include an entertaining live commentary; your skipper will explain the origins of the Broads as he points out the sights of interest including the abundance of wildlife. Light refreshments, licensed bar and toilet facilities are available on all river trips. Our daily timetable of river trips runs from 1st April until 1st November. Please see our website for our full timetable of sailings. A limited number of wheelchair users are welcome on all of our sailings. Advance booking is recommended to avoid disappointment. Coach parties and groups are very welcome. We offer generous group discounts and free coach parking. Minimum 15 people required for group discount.

Private Charter:
If you are looking for a unique venue for your family party or corporate function you can even charter one of our passenger boats. Please see our website for more details.
